FIVE HUNDRED FOWLS ENTERED IN EATON SHOW Prizes Delayed by Non-arrival of Judge Richmond Man Among Exhibitors. EATON, O., Jan. 17. With approximately 500 fowls on exhibition and awaiting Judging for awards, the Judging did not take place Thursday at the how being held here this week by the Western Ohio Poultry Fanciers' club. The Judging did not take place because J. O. Johnson, of , Bridgeton, Mo., did not reach here as expected. Officers of the local show thought possibly Judge Johnson had been detained at Springfield, III., where he Judged a state show Tuesday and Wednesday. A telegraphic communication was forwarded to him Thursday afternoon but no reply had been received up until evening. Should It be impossible for him to get here, another Judge will be selected, which it was thought might delay the Judging and awarding of prizes until Friday afternoon or possibly Saturday.

Larsh, of Dayton, have birds entered in the show, the former Bhowing the Rhode Island Reds and tha latter the Brown Leghorns. Many Cities Represented.

To look ones best and feel ones best is to enjoy an Inside bath each morn ing to flush from the system the pre vious day's waste, sour fermentations and poisonous toxins before it is ab sorbed into the blood. Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombustible material In the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leaves In the alimentary organs a certain amount of indigestible material, which if not eliminated, forms toxins and poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are intended to suck In only nourishment to sffstaln the body If you want to see the glow of healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, which Is a harmless means of washing the waste material and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys anl bowels, before putting more food into the stomach. Men and women with sallow skins, liver spots, pimples or pallid complexion, are those who wake up with a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach or constipation should begin this phosphated hot water drinking. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate costs very little at the drug store, but is sufficient to demonstrate that Just as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies and freshens the skin on the outside, so hot water and limestone phosphate acts on the inside rgans.

oj Education ' By P. G. HOLDEN

THE whole world Is facing a period of reconstruction. Not only today, but for years to come the people of America, as of every other country, will be called upon to solve problems that will demand the best thought. Gigantic tasks await our attention. Upon men of ability will depend our progress. ' - Does education pay? Is It better to take our boy out of high school and put him to work? Is it better for the boy? Who would consider it an act of wisdom to take a boy from a job where he was earning $9.26 a day and put him to work earning $1.50 a day? A man is worth $1.50 a dny from his head down. What he earns over that depends upon what he has stored away in his head and the use he makes of it. '-'-.. ' - . s ' Fall to Value Education. Too many of as are inclined to disregard the advantages of an education. "Dad" didn't get any high school .training. He has been able to make a living

graduate earns in excess of that paid to the uneducated man Is equal to $9.2fl for each day spent In school. The bulletin further shows that the average amount earned by college graduates In 40 years is $80,000. It takes four years, or 720 days, to go through college. If these 720 days of school add $40,000 to his earnings in 40 years, every day the boy spends in college he is earning $55.55. Education Increases Production. President A. W. Van Hoose of Shorter College, Georgia, recently compiled the following facts on the value of education: The people of Massachusetts have an average of seven years of schooling and produce an average of $260 a year each. In Tennessee the average schooling is only three years and the average production Is only $116 per capita per year. Out of two million men who had no schooling only 12 attained any degree of distinction. Out of two million who had elementary schooling, 50 attained distinction. Of two million who had high school education, 1,245 attained distinction. In other words, a child with no schooling has but one chance in 150,000 of rendering distinguished service. The child with elementary education has four times that chance and the child with high school education has 100 times the chance.

Allen Showalter, Aged 90, Is Dead at Eaton EATON, O., Jan. 17. Allen Showalter, aged 90, died Wednesday evening at his home here, following a long illness of Bright's disease.

and he doesn t see the need of wasting any time in sending "Bill" to high school. But the fact is that every day the boy spends n school is worth $9.26. and that, probably, is more than "dad" ever earned In one day. A bulletin issued by the U. S. Bureau of Education, based on wages paid in the years before the war, shows that the uneducated laborer earns an average of $500 a year. This means that In 40 years his total earnings are $20,000. High school graduates earn an average of $1,000 a year, or $40,000 In 40 years. The average child must go to school 12 years before graduating from the high school. This is a total of 2,160 days.

GRATIS PREPARES FOR ANNUAL FARMERS INSTITUTE JAN. 20-21

By. WM. R. SANBORN. GRATIS, Ohio, Jan. 17. The people of this quaint and rather venerable old town are actively preparing for the one great winter' event in which all are very much Interested. This is the annual two-day meeting of the Farmers' Institute, which will be held here next Monday and Tuesday. The Farmers' Institute at . Gratis is one of Preble county's established educational enterprises. And it Is more than educational; it is largely a social gathering and reunion. It Is a carefree and pleasant occasion and one helpful in its influence throughout the year. W. U. Young is president, and W. E. Andrews secretary of the institute. They promise a splendid program. The Ladies' Aid society of the Brethren church has organized to prevent starvation of visitors. They promise enough to eat and to spare. Gratis is "quaint" and also "venerable," and with reason. Many of its comfortable old homes date back to early days. Now early days in Gratis date away back of the Civil War, for Gratis started bravely out on its second century two years ago. This means that some of the land In this township has been farmed for more than one hundred years. About Cakes, Pies, Etc. The most interesting display to most visitors will be the array of cakes, pies, etc. Bread? Oh, surely, and corn? Yes, certainly. But bread is an everyday affair, and not always good bread at that. But pies and cakes and cookies. Well, 6ay. Ask any school boy or girl. They are expert judges. But corn; anyone wishing to eat corn off the cob in January may do so. The Ladies' Aid has not however, put corn on their bill of fare, but a lot of it will be shown just the same. The judging 'and , awards will interest many people, for a lot of good corn is grown in this county. The committee on premiums played fair to the fair sex. It has "hung up" as much money in the baking contest as in the corn contest. Those level men evidently are married, or if not, are "looking around" a bit. Did some one shout "Votes for Women"? All right, gentlemen; just as you say, but sample their cookery first, if you please. A First Settler. Among the pioneers in what is now Gratis township, came Dr. Christian Saylor, as a child, his parents arriving in their quest for a new home from Maryland. Doctor Saylor's daughter, Caroline, married Jacob Zimmerman, and his son, C. M. Zimmerman, is one of. the substantial citizens of this community. This is one of the best known tobacco districts in Preble county, and Preble county raises a lot of good tobacco. Not the "Burley" leaf of Kentucky, but a cigar leaf, for filler and binder which is nationally used. The oldest living tobacco grower possibly, in this section, is Reuben Koons, who has been cultivating the weed for about sixty-four years, it is said. He should surely know something about Little Dutch tobacco by now and his experiences in growirrg this valuable crop would doubtless interest many of the later generation of tobacco farmers. He has raised all kinds of crops and sold at all kinds of prices during those sixty-odd eventful years. No Tobacco Buyers in Sight. Nearly every farmer around here raises tobacco, some more and others less. It is a money crop which counts in the business of both town and country. Just now there is a large supply of good quality leaf on hand, wnue a year ago practically every pound was sold before this time. Growers are wondering why, but are not losing sleep, because of lack of present demand. They know thatj most ot tne world is toDacco nungry and that a market is assured. The bulk of the 1917 crop brought from 20 to 30 cents and up to 33, depending on quality. A report of tobacco sales at Aurora, Indiana, tells of large sales at an

average of $29.90 per 100, and in one instance an entire crop was sold at $36. Low grades are in little demand and these keep the "averages" paid down, some sales at Aurora this week going as high as 50 cents per pound for small choice lots. Some Rather Large Tobacco Grower. Mrs. Jacob Urich had perhaps the largest acreage in tobacco grown in this vicinity in 1918, upwards of 30 acres. That means a lot of tobacco in a good tobacco year. Among other well known tobacco farmers, who trade at Gratis are: Ira Flora, Robert Bratton, Chas. Pugh, Shelby Mobley, Aaron Slough, Pearl Smith, Len Holliday, Chas. Zimmerman, Harry Darragh, Wm. Graham, Forest Chrissmer, Chas". Doty, Harvey Brubaker, Geo Chrissmer, Royal Shade, Wm. Zimmerman, Wm. Bratton, Thomas Bratton and Geo. Moses. There are, of course, many other tobacco growers scattered over Gratis and adjoining townships. Besides , fine corn, good wheat is raised in this section. Mr. Hoover's call for more wheat brought a cheerful and gratifying response last year and the acreage is large for the coming harvest A Missing Son in Service. Gratis contributed its share of its young manhood to the cause. The list includes: Joseph Cunningham, Foster Skinner, Ernest Pence, Charles Ciipp, Elmer Butt, Orval Andrews, Vernie Castle, Earl Bratton, Glen Doty, Emery Koons, Edward Miller, Lyndon" Street, Wilbur Neff, Sylvanus Neff and Lysle Zimmerman. The only one of these who is unaccounted for, and of whom there has been no trace since his arrival in Bordeaux, France, on August, 20, 1918, is Lysle Zimmerman. He was in the Marines, Postmaster Cunningham says and has been lost sight of entirely apparently. As he had previously been a faithful correspondent, his family and friends have done everything possible to locate him, or to learn of his fate. Washington has been consulted and the cable, used to discover the facts, but so far, without result. It is possible that he may be with the fleet still in northern ice-bound wraters connected with Russian relief, or troop supply work. If so, letters are likely to be few and far apart. Fourth Liberty Loan. The Twin Valley bank of Gratis reports 130 subscribers to Fourth Liberty Loan, and the value of the bonds sold here was $29,400, more than $5,000 over che call. This town and township have gone over the top on all war calls and P. T. Cunningham, postmaster, says the sales of War

Rheumatism Physician Believes a Genuine Remedy for the Disease Has Been Found. Rheuma, the wonderful rheumatism remedy, now sold by all good druggists, gives quicker and more lasting relief than other remedies costing many times as much. Rheuma acts with speed; it brings in a few days the relief you have prayed for. It antagonizes the poisons that cause agony and pain in the Joints and muscles and quickly the torturing soreness completely disappeares. Read what a reputable physician says about Rheuma: "I .have made a most careful investigation of the formula employed in the manufacture of Rheuma, and I heartily recommend it as a remedy for all forms of rheumatism. I find Rheuma far in advance of the methods generally employed in the treatment of rheumatism, and altogether different in composition from the remedies usually prescribed." Dr. M. C. Lyons. This certainly should give any rheumatic sufferer confidence to try this harmless and inexpensive remedy. If you have rheumatism in any form don't delay. Try Rheuma today. Your druggist will supply you and return your money if it does not give you quick and joyful relief. Adv. Hill Company. St. Joseph, MlMoaff

Savings Stamps are a credit to the community. . . There are several ways of reaching this attractive country : town. If you have plenty of time you can walk over good roads; if too tired or too distant for walking, try a buggy or auto or airplane. But don't look up a train or traction car time table. Gratis is not that kind of a town. It is not dirtied by smoky locomotives or jarred by clanging car bells. It is an inland village of about 400 population, where peace and prosperity abide.

DAILY HEALTH TALKS What Is The Cause of Backache? j BY DOCTOR CORNELL t Backache is perhaps the most common ailment from which women suffer. Rarely do you find anybody free from it. Sometimes the cause is obscure, but Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., a high medical authority, says the cause is very often a form of catarrh that settles in the delicate membranes of the feminine organs. When these organs are inflamed, the first symptom is backache, accompanied by bearingdown sensations, weakness, unhealthy discharges, irregularity, painful periods, irritation, headache and a general run-down condition. Any voman in this condition is to be pitied, but pity docs not cure. The trouble calls for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, which is a separate and distinct medicine for women. It is made of root3 and herbs put up without alcohol or opiate of any kind, for Dr. Pierce ufC3 nothaig else m his prescription, x avonte Prescription is a natural remedy for women, for the vegetable growths of which it is made seem to have been intended by Nature for that very purpose.
